BackgroundAtherosclerosis is a widespread disorder of the cardiovascular system. The early detection of plaques by circulating biomarkers is highly clinically relevant to prevent the occurrence of major complications such as stroke or heart attacks. It is known that extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important in intercellular communication in atherosclerotic disorders and carry many components of their cells of origin, including microRNAs (miRNAs).

Coronary arteries are blood vessels supplying oxygenated blood to the heart muscle. LAD is short for left anterior descending coronary artery. LAD is usually the largest branch of the left main coronary artery which supplies the major portion of the left ventricle. Hence blockage of LAD can cause a major heart attack, which can sometimes be fatal. That is why LAD has been called a widow maker artery.
